sounds like you might've used too much cheese or didn't mix it well. Try using pecorino romano for a creamier texture and mix continuously over low heat until it's silky smooth.Heyy foodies!I made cacio e pepe and to my dismay it turned out more like a pasta salad than the creamy texture.
I'm trying to figure out what went wrong. Could it be the quality of my cheese, type of pasta, or maybe I didn't toss it enough?
I'm all ears!

Pecorino romano for creamier pasta sounds great. Can't wait to try it. Your expertise is much appreciated!
